About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b/2, Open-Label, Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of PF-06252616 in Ambulatory Participants With LGMD2I

The investigational product PF 06252616, a humanized anti myostatin monoclonal antibody that neutralizes myostatin (GDF8) is in development for the treatment of Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy 2I (LGMD2I) to preserve and/or improve muscle function.

This study will provide the clinical assessment of the safety, tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of PF 06252616 following repeat IV doses in ambulatory adults with LGMD2I.

Read the detailed description

This study is a Phase 1b/2, open-label multiple ascending dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, PK and PD of PF 06252616 in ambulatory adults with LGMD2I. The study design is intended to determine the optimal safe and pharmacologically active dose of PF 06252616 in LGMD2I while providing an opportunity for all subjects to receive active drug for a rare and disabling disorder. The study will be conducted in three periods: Lead-In, Treatment and Follow-up periods. The Lead-In and Follow-up periods will each be 16 weeks to allow an assessment of the change of various outcome measures of this period of time and comparison of change in function before, during and after treatment. The Treatment period will be 32 weeks. Three cohorts of participants will be enrolled and receive escalating doses of PF 06252616. The first cohort will have the option to crossover to the highest dose.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of Dose Limiting or Intolerability Treatment Related Adverse Events

    Adverse events include subject-reported symptoms as well as clinically-significant changes in laboratory testing, vital signs, and suicide screening (based on the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale).

    Measured: Baseline through 64 weeks

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Maximum Observed Serum Concentration at Steady State (Cmax, ss) of GDF-8

    The concentration of myostatin (GDF-8) was measured in serum 2 hours after dose administration at two visits (Day 337 and Day 393 for Cohort 1; Day 113 and 169 for Cohorts 2 and 3)where drug concentration had reached steady state. The highest concentration from these two time points was averaged for each cohort.

    Measured: Day 337 and Day 393 for Cohort 1; Day 113 and 169 for Cohorts 2 and 3

  2. Minimum Observed Serum Trough Concentration at Steady State (Ctrough,ss) of GDF-8

    The concentration of myostatin (GDF-8) was measured in serum prior to dose administration at two time points (Day 337 and Day 393 for Cohort 1; Day 113 and 169 for Cohorts 2 and 3) where drug concentration had reached steady state. The lowest concentration from these two time points was averaged for each cohort.

    Measured: Day 337 and Day 393 for Cohort 1; Day 113 and 169 for Cohorts 2 and 3

  3. Maximum Observed Serum Concentration (Cmax) of PF-06252616

    The peak concentration of study drug (PF-06252616) was measured in serum following dose administration at two time points (Day 113 and Day 169) where drug concentration had reached steady state. The higher concentration from these two time points was averaged for each cohort.

    Measured: Day 113 and Day 169

  4. Minimum Observed Serum Trough Concentration (Ctrough) of PF-06252616

    The peak concentration of study drug (PF-06252616) was measured in serum prior to dose administration at two time points (Day 113 and Day 169) where drug concentration had reached steady state. The lower concentration from these two time points was averaged for each cohort.

    Measured: Day 113 and Day 169

  5. Immunogenicity: Incidence of Anti-drug Antibody

    Blood samples were tested for the presence of anti-drug antibodies prior to the initiation of study drug, at dose escalation (Cohort 1 only), and at 3 separate time points after the last dose was given.

    Measured: Baseline through 96 weeks

  6. Mean Change From Baseline in 10 Meter Walk/Run Time in Seconds

    Subjects are asked to run or walk as quickly as possible for 10 meters from a standing position. The total time to traverse 10 meters is recorded in seconds.

    Measured: Baseline through 32 weeks

  7. Mean Change From Baseline of Forced Vital Capacity in Liters

    The total forced vital capacity was measured using a bedside spirometer. The best of 3 trials was recorded.

    Measured: Baseline through 32 weeks

  8. Mean Change From Baseline in 2MWD in Meters

    Average change in distance (in meters) walked in 2 minutes.

    Measured: Baseline through 32 weeks

  9. Mean Change From Baseline in TUG in Seconds

    The timed-up-and-go test (TUG) is the total time it takes the subject to rise from a seated position, walk to a marker 3 meters away, return to the chair, and sit.

    Measured: Baseline through 32 weeks

  10. Mean Change From Baseline in Muscle Strength as Measured by Modified MRC Scale

    Twenty-two muscle groups were measured on a modified MRC scale ranging from 1 through 12. The total scores from all 22 muscle groups were added to generate a summary score ranging from 12 to 264 with higher scores signifying greater strength. The change in summary score was calculated over the first 32 weeks of treatment.

    Measured: Baseline through 32 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing PF 06252616 in people with LGMD2I, run by Kathryn Wagner at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Oct 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of Dose Limiting or Intolerability Treatment Related Adverse Events (time frame: Baseline through 64 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02841267, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Oct 2020.
